 <title> Report on inequality in Europe: Tax harmonisation is the key to curb inequality</title>
 <link>http://voxeurop.eu/fr/2019/galit-s-5122846</link>
 <description>The World Inequality Lab has just released an unpublished report measuring the development of inequality in Europe and the United States since 1980. Entitled Has the European social model withstood the rise in inequality?, the report is the first to analyse income disparities before and after tax over such a long period, for all European countries.</description>

 <title> Poor working conditions are main global employment challenge</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41924&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Poor quality employment is the main issue for global labour markets, with millions of people forced to accept inadequate working conditions, according to a new report from the International Labour Organization (ILO). New data gathered for the World Employment and Social Outlook: Trends 2019  (WESO) show that a majority of the 3.3 billion people employed globally in 2018 had inadequate economic security, material well-being and equality of opportunity. What’s more, progress in reducing unemployment globally is not being reflected in improvements in the quality of work.</description>

 <title> Global hunger continues to rise, new UN report says</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41910&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>New evidence continues to signal that the number of hungry people in the world is growing, reaching 821 million in 2017 or one in every nine people, according to The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018 released today. Limited progress is also being made in addressing the multiple forms of malnutrition, ranging from child stunting to adult obesity, putting the health of hundreds of millions of people at risk.
Hunger has been on the rise over the past three years, returning to levels from a decade ago. This reversal in progress sends a clear warning that more must be done and urgently if the Sustainable Development Goal of Zero Hunger is to be achieved by 2030. </description>

 <title> Recognizing the rights of domestic workers</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41904&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Domestic workers are one of the groups most vulnerable to exploitation, violence, harassment, and forced labour. International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition reminds us that many women end up being trapped in abusive work situations which in some cases may amount to modern forms of slavery.</description>

 <title> 3 in 5 babies not breastfed in the first hour of life
</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41899&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>An estimated 78 million babies " or three in five " are not breastfed within the first hour of life, putting them at higher risk of death and disease and making them less likely to continue breastfeeding, say UNICEF and WHO in a new report. Most of these babies are born in low- and middle-income countries.

 <title> The high cost of food monopolies in Africa</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41888&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In May, global food prices increased 1.2%, reaching their highest level since October 2017. This upward trajectory is having a disproportionate impact in Africa, where the share of household income spent on food is also rising. To ensure food security, governments must work quickly to reverse these trends, and one place to start is by policing the producers who are feeding the frenzy.</description>

 <title> Why we need decentralized renewable energy to power the world</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnews.net/2018/08/why-we-need-decentralized-renewable-energy-to-power-the-world/</link>
 <description>As the energy sector is transforming, there is a growing consensus that sustainable energy is a catalyst for achieving most Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): it is crucial for better health, education, jobs, food production and conservation, as well as water use and quality.
This transformation involves decentralized solutions that are changing how people interact with each other and their energy providers. It influences the role of citizens not only as consumers but also as oeprosumers” or energy entrepreneurs.</description>

 <title> Mini-Grids for rural growth</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41853&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>More than 300 million people in India lack access to electricity, while in Sub-Saharan Africa, twice that many live without power. With population growth forecast to exceed connection rates, oeenergy poverty” is expected to worsen before it improves.
For decades, rural communities in frontier economies have waited in vain for government-supplied electricity to arrive. But today, new technologies " coupled with cheaper solar panels, better batteries, and mobile payment systems " are changing how power is produced and distributed. </description>

 <title> Power to the pupils: solar panels keep Kenya's kids in school</title>
 <link>http://news.trust.org/item/20180725134510-5i97c/</link>
 <description>From a mile away, the roof of Mihingoni Primary School glitters in Kenya's midday sun. The effect, though, comes not from the roof but from what is on it: a sparkling array of solar panels.
Mihingoni is one of eight mostly off-grid primary schools in the southeastern coastal county of Kilifi that have been fitted with a solar array.
The key task of the 800-watt panels is to power tablet computers that pupils use under the government's strategy to integrate e-learning into primary education.</description>

 <title> Building the Caribbean’s climate resilience to ensure basic survival</title>

 <description>In 2004, when the Category 4 hurricane Ivan hit the tiny island nation of Grenada and its 151 mph winds stalled overhead for 15 hours"it devastated the country. But not before pummelling Barbados and other islands, killing at least 15 people.
And again last year, the destruction left behind in several Caribbean islands by Hurricanes Irma and Maria once again highlighted the vulnerability of these island countries.
It has also emphasised the need for a strong natural resource base to protect and make communities and ecosystems more resilient to the impacts of climate change, which are expected to become even more severe in the future.</description>

 <title> Experts decry exclusion of Africa’s local farmers in food security efforts</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnews.net/2018/07/experts-decry-exclusion-africas-local-farmers-food-security-efforts/</link>
 <description>Joshua Kiragu reminisces of years gone by when just one of his two hectares of land produced at least 40 bags of maize. But that was 10 years ago. Today, Kiragu can barely scrape up 20 bags from the little piece of land that he has left " it measures just under a hectare.
Kiragu, who is from Kenya’s Rift Valley region, tells IPS that years of extreme and drastic weather patterns continue to take their toll on his once-thriving maize business. His business, he says, has all but collapsed.
But Kiragu’s situation is not unique. Effects of land degradation and desertification are some of the major challenges facing smallholder farmers today.</description>

 <title> Kenya’s perfect storm</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41757&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>It’s the end of the rainy season in Kenya, and this year’s storms have been almost biblical, washing away not only people’s sunny disposition, but also their bridges, buses, livestock, and crops. But the damage cannot be blamed on the weather alone. Roads have been hit especially hard; potholes the size of cars litter highways in the capital. Near the offices of the United Nations on Limuru Road, for example, traffic backs up for a half-mile as vehicles nudge into oncoming traffic to avoid one particularly large water-filled hole. </description>

 <title> Protecting the right to a childhood</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41705&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Many of us look back on our childhoods with warm feelings. But for more than 150 million girls and boys between the ages of 5 and 17 around the world, childhood means something else: poverty, a lack of education and working long hours in dangerous conditions.
Child labour is defined as work that is inappropriate for a child’s age, or more specifically, work that affects a child’s education or is likely to harm their health, safety or morals</description>

 <title> The Brazilian crisis and the dark dimension</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41669&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Slavery is our main shame, because for centuries we bought and sold millions of human beings brought forcefully from Africa, and treated as "things." Once liberated, those human beings received no compensation, land or tools for work, or housing; they live in the favelas of our cities. Blacks and mestizos constitute the majority of our people. As Jesse Souza very well showed, the contempt and hatred directed against the slaves has been transferred to their descendants of today.</description>

 <title> Hunger Highway: desperate Venezuelans take hard road to Brazil</title>
 <link>http://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/may/15/venezuela-brazil-hunger-highway</link>
 <description>Venezuela holds elections on Sunday but 5,000 people a day are leaving " many trekking a 215km route through the Amazon. Daniel Guerra hit the Hunger Highway at dawn hoping to steal a march on the punishing heat of Brazil’s northern savannah and consign 21st-century socialism to his past. 
oeNecessity forced me to come,” explained the 24-year-old Venezuelan as he trudged along the BR-174, a 215km (134-mile) ribbon of asphalt that cuts south across the Brazilian Amazon and is the main entry point for tens of thousands of Venezuelan migrants fleeing economic meltdown back home.</description>

 <title> Cash and vouchers: the new vogue in humanitarian aid</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41544&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The popular image of humanitarian aid in public consciousness is of trucks loaded with essential foods being handed out to refugees.
But increasingly, humanitarian organisations have been turning away from transporting bags of commodities to crisis areas, and are instead focusing on giving refugees the means to buy their own food.
The UK-based Overseas Development Institute estimates that cash and vouchers now account for around 6% of total humanitarian spending, up from less than 1% in 2004. That is still a small amount but the United Nations World Food Program says cash now accounts for just over a quarter of its assistance.</description>

 <title> Brazil's Black Population Dominates Popular Politics, But Remains Left Out From Government</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41521&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>By May 2018, it will be have been 130 years since Brazil formally abolished slavery; however, the legacy of three centuries of exploitation is still tangible to this day.
According to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, 74% of the bottom 10% of Brazilians (in terms of wealth) are black. Black Brazilians are also 23.5% more likely to be victims of homicide than Brazilians of other races, controlling for age, education, gender, marital status and place of residence.
The month of March commemorated both International Women's Day and the lesser-known International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, both calling for a reflection on the advances and challenges for gender and racial equality.</description>

 <title> Richest 1 percent bagged 82 percent of wealth created last year - poorest half of humanity got nothing</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41394&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Eighty two percent of the wealth generated last year went to the richest one percent of the global population, while the 3.7 billion people who make up the poorest half of the world saw no increase in their wealth, according to a new Oxfam report released today. [...]

Billionaire wealth has risen by an annual average of 13 percent since 2010 " six times faster than the wages of ordinary workers, which have risen by a yearly average of just 2 percent. The number of billionaires rose at an unprecedented rate of one every two days between March 2016 and March 2017.</description>

 <title> Trump’s Unethical Aid Cuts</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41337&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The truth is that it is the United States that is not paying its fair share. Long ago, the United Nations called on rich countries to raise their foreign aid to 0.7% of their gross national income (which of course is very different from government spending). In 2016, according to OECD figures, the United Arab Emirates, Norway, Luxembourg, Sweden, Denmark, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and Germany reached that level. In contrast, official US aid amounted to only 0.18% of gross national income, or 18 cents for every $100 dollars earned. </description>

 <title> The political strength of hope</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41330&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>From Saint Augustine, perhaps the greatest Christian genius, a great inventor of phrases, comes this sentence: hope has two beloved daughters: Indignation and Courage; Indignation teaches us to reject things as they are, and Courage inspires us to change them.

At this moment we first must evoke the daughter Indignation: facing what the Temer government is criminally perpetrating against the people, the indigenous, the small farmers, women, the workers and the elderly - taking away their rights and lowering millions of Brazilians from poverty into abject misery.  Not even national sovereignty is safe, because the Temer government is allowing the sale of national lands to foreigners.

If the government offends the people, the people has the right to invoke daughter-Indignation, not giving the government peace, but demanding in the streets and squares that it be removed, because it is already being accused of criminal corruption and is the result of a coup, and for that reason, lacks legitimacy.

Daughter-Courage is seen in the movement for change, even though the confrontations could be dangerous. Courage keeps our spirits high, sustains us in the struggle and can lead us to victory. It is important to follow the advice of Don Quixote: "Do not accept defeat if the last battle has not yet been fought." </description>

 <title> World poverty could be cut in half if all adults completed secondary education</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41293&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The new analysis on education’s impact on poverty by UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report team is based on the average effects of education on growth and poverty reduction in developing countries from 1965 to 2010. It shows that nearly 60 million people could escape poverty if all adults had just two more years of schooling. If all adults completed secondary education, 420 million could be lifted out of poverty, reducing the total number of poor people by more than half globally and by almost two-thirds in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Studies have shown that education has direct and indirect impacts on both economic growth and poverty. Education provides skills that boost employment opportunities and incomes while helping to protect people from socio-economic vulnerabilities. A more equitable expansion of education is likely to reduce inequality, lifting the poorest from the bottom of the ladder.</description>

 <title> Democratizing Artificial Intelligence</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41171&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Artificial Intelligence is the next technological frontier, and it has the potential to make or break the world order. The AI revolution could pull the oebottom billion” out of poverty and transform dysfunctional institutions, or it could entrench injustice and increase inequality. The outcome will depend on how we manage the coming changes.

Unfortunately, when it comes to managing technological revolutions, humanity has a rather poor track record. Consider the Internet, which has had an enormous impact on societies worldwide, changing how we communicate, work, and occupy ourselves. And it has disrupted some economic sectors, forced changes to long-established business models, and created a few entirely new industries.

In fact, in some ways, the Internet has exacerbated our problems.  </description>

 <title> Ending inequality</title>
 <link>http://regardssurlaterre.com/dossier/vaincre-les-inegalites</link>
 <description>In 2015 the world has never been richer, if wealth is measured in terms of goods and services consumed and produced. And this wealth has never been so unevenly distributed. The share of national wealth owned by the richest 1% and 10%, in countries where tax data are available, reach the peak levels of the beginning of the last century. Rising inequality within countries is also observed at the global scale. By 2016, half of the world’s wealth will be owned by 1% of the Earth’s population.

This seemingly inexorable resurgence of inequality would be even more alarming if it was not accompanied by an equally unprecedented countermeasure: for the first time, the reduction of domestic income inequality has been put onto the international development agenda " it is one of the universal Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 10) that were adopted in September 2015 at the end of the United Nations General Assembly.</description>

 <title> The beauty in Black Bridge</title>
 <link>http://making-of.afp.com/pauvres-mais-chaleureux</link>
 <description>oeWhy are you taking pictures here?” the curious boy asked me as I snapped photos in a small village just outside of Beijing. oeYou should go to the Forbidden City or the Summer Palace. There, it’s beautiful. Here,” he motioned around him to the ramshackle structures of brick, corrugated iron and wood surrounding us, oehere, it’s ugly. There is nothing to photograph here.”
oeI think this place is beautiful because of the people who live here,” I said. oeI find it as beautiful as the Forbidden City, where noone lives anymore. Here, this place is full of life and energy and people. To me, this is beautiful.”
He looked at me, perplexed, then shook his head from side to side. He didn’t understand.</description>

 <title> Why the majority of the world’s poor are women</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41025&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Gender inequality is one of the oldest and most pervasive forms of inequality in the world. It denies women their voices, devalues their work and make women’s position unequal to men’s, from the household to the national and global levels.
Despite some important progress to change this in recent years, in no country have women achieved economic equality with men, and women are still more likely than men to live in poverty. [...] 

Gender inequality in the economy costs women in developing countries $9 trillion a year " a sum which would not only give new spending power to women and benefit their families and communities, but would also provide a massive boost to the economy as a whole.</description>

 <description>

Over two-thirds of the 176 countries and territories in this year's index fall below the midpoint of our scale of 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean). The global average score is a paltry 43, indicating endemic corruption in a country's public sector. Top-scoring countries (yellow in the map below) are far outnumbered by orange and red countries where citizens face the tangible impact of corruption on a daily basis.</description>

 <title> Aid in reverse: how poor countries develop rich countries </title>
 <link>http://www.theguardian.com/global-development-professionals-network/2017/jan/14/aid-in-reverse-how-poor-countries-develop-rich-countries</link>
 <description>The US-based Global Financial Integrity (GFI) and the Centre for Applied Research at the Norwegian School of Economics recently published some fascinating data. They tallied up all of the financial resources that get transferred between rich countries and poor countries each year: not just aid, foreign investment and trade flows (as previous studies have done) but also non-financial transfers such as debt cancellation, unrequited transfers like workers’ remittances, and unrecorded capital flight (more of this later). What they discovered is that the flow of money from rich countries to poor countries pales in comparison to the flow that runs in the other direction.</description>

 <description>Eight men own the same wealth as the 3.6 billion people who make up the poorest half of humanity, according to a new report published by Oxfam today to mark the annual meeting of political and business leaders in Davos.
Oxfam’s report, ‘An economy for the 99 percent’, shows that the gap between rich and poor is far greater than had been feared. It details how big business and the super-rich are fuelling the inequality crisis by dodging taxes, driving down wages and using their power to influence politics. It calls for a fundamental change in the way we manage our economies so that they work for all people, and not just a fortunate few. [...]
Seven out of 10 people live in a country that has seen a rise in inequality in the last 30 years.  Between 1988 and 2011 the incomes of the poorest 10 percent increased by just $65 per person, while the incomes of the richest 1 percent grew by $11,800 per person " 182 times as much.

 <title> Universal Basic Income and Radical Populism: Making the Link</title>
 <link>http://www.stratfor.com/weekly/universal-basic-income-and-radical-populism-making-link</link>
 <description>he idea goes all the way back to Thomas More's Utopia, published in 1516. And that is part of its problematic legacy: It seems so utopian. French philosopher Nicolas de Condorcet proposed a form of "social insurance" at the time of the French Revolution ... but he was imprisoned and sentenced to death. Thomas Paine, a political activist and a founding father of the United States, took up his friend's cause, writing in 1796 that payments should be made "to every person, rich or poor," "because it is in lieu of the natural inheritance, which, as a right, belongs to every man, over and above the property he may have created, or inherited from those who did."</description>

 <title> Letter from Sarajevo</title>
 <link>http://washingtonspectator.org/fernandez-bosnia-friedman/</link>
 <description>Bosnian analyst Lana Pasic explained in a recent essay:
Industry in Bosnia and Herzegovina was doing well before the war, but after [the] Dayton [Accords that ended the conflict], formerly state-owned and worker-managed companies were privatized, often for little money. The privatization phenomenon changed the rules of the game, and poor management also resulted in the failure of the factories to contribute to the pensions and health insurance for the workers, who have, due to legal requirements, remained in their jobs for years, but without pay.</description>

 <title> Why Caribbean History Matters</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40718&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Over the years, I have had dozens of conversations on the question of whether Caribbean history oereally matters” and for whom it matters. I’ve heard the region’s history dismissed due to the relative size of Caribbean societies, historians’ supposedly excessive preoccupation with slavery, and a questioning of what lessons can be learned from such allegedly dysfunctional societies.

 <title> Socialism for the Rich, Capitalism for the Poor: An Interview With Noam Chomsky</title>
 <link>http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/38682-socialism-for-the-rich-capitalism-for-the-poor-an-interview-with-noam-chomsky</link>
 <description>Concentration of wealth leads naturally to concentration of power, which in turn translates to legislation favoring the interests of the rich and powerful and thereby increasing even further the concentration of power and wealth. Various political measures, such as fiscal policy, deregulation, and rules for corporate governance are designed to increase the concentration of wealth and power. And that's what we've been seeing during the neoliberal era. It is a vicious cycle in constant progress. The state is there to provide security and support to the interests of the privileged and powerful sectors in society while the rest of the population is left to experience the brutal reality of capitalism. Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor.</description>

 <title> A paradigm change at the IMF?</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40678&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Inequality has been rising all over the world in recent years. As US President Barack Obama pointed out some time ago, the reduction of economic inequality is the oedefining challenge of our time”. This is true not only for the USA, but many countries. In the developing world, rising economic inequality has been a pervasive feature for decades. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) may have taken note.
Complete equality of income and wealth is neither achievable nor desirable. However, extreme inequality is unhealthy for several reasons:</description>

 <title> Should funding agencies also share in the sacrifice of social change? </title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40650&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Every day of every year, in places like Standing Rock and Ferguson and Aleppo and Hong Kong, tens of thousands of people put their lives and livelihoods on the line in the struggle for human rights. If they are paid at all the amounts are very low and the risks are often high, so shared sacrifice is demanded from everyone involved. Opportunities for personal gain are subordinated to solidarity with colleagues and the cause in order to knit together a strong social fabric. Consistency between words and actions is essential in building mutual loyalty and trust.</description>

 <title> Mums against austerity in the UK</title>
 <link>http://www.dissentmagazine.org/article/focus-e15-mums-against-austerity-uk</link>
 <description>Groups like Sisters Uncut and Focus E15 Mothers are the vanguard of anti-austerity campaigning, refusing to accept cuts that affect women disproportionately. While upper-class feminists may have the option of oeleaning in,” working-class women must confront a system that wants to kick them out entirely. These women’s housing occupations represent a struggle over our entire framework of reproductive labor: a rejection of society’s demand that women be good mothers and good workers simultaneously, all while staying out of sight. Instead of accepting the narratives of failure and shame served to them by government and society alike, they are intent on disrupting it.</description>

 <description>"Olympic Games always have winners and losers. In the Games, there are always three winners in each event. In Rio de Janeiro, we know exactly who they are: the major construction companies " part of them involved in Operation Lava Jato; real estate speculation " which made a lot of money in recent years; and the political class and local elite " who succeeded in building a network of power that will last for the next 50 years. In the Games, those who come in fourth or fifth are not remembered. It does not matter. That’s the Olympic spirit: winners and losers. And the population of Rio de Janeiro is part of those who are being forgotten."</description>

 <description>In the quarter-century since the publication in 1990 of the first Human Development Report, the world has made astounding strides in reducing poverty and improving the health, education, and living conditions of hundreds of millions of people. And yet, as impressive as these gains may be, they have not been distributed equally. Both between countries and within them, deep disparities in human development remain.</description>

 <title> Latin America is the world's most unequal region. Here's how to fix it</title>
 <link>http://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/01/inequality-is-getting-worse-in-latin-america-here-s-how-to-fix-it</link>
 <description>Global leaders will meet at the Annual Meeting in Davos this week to discuss how to improve the state of the world and address its most pressing challenges. There is much to talk about - not least the global inequality crisis, which has come to the fore in recent years in the wake of the economic and financial crisis of 2008-2009. Inequality is growing at an alarming pace and poses a serious risk to economic growth, the fight against poverty and social stability.
For evidence of the destructive impact that extreme inequality has on sustainable patterns of growth and social cohesion, we need look no further than Latin America and the Caribbean. Although the region achieved considerable success in reducing extreme poverty over the last decade, its still-high levels of income and wealth inequality have stymied sustainable growth and social inclusion. In Latin America and the Caribbean, inequality is preventing a return to an inclusive growth trajectory in the face of daunting external conditions. The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) projects the region’s growth to be 0.2% for 2016.</description>

 <description>oeFear of terrorist attacks and mass refugee flows are driving many Western governments to roll back human rights protections,” Kenneth Roth, the executive director of Human Rights Watch, said. oeThese backward steps threaten the rights of all without any demonstrated effectiveness in protecting ordinary people.”
 (...)
oeThe wisdom enshrined in international human rights law provides indispensable guidance to governments that seek to keep their nation safe and serve their people most effectively,” Roth said. oeWe abandon it at our peril.”

 <title> UNESCO presents new finance model that could triple the availability of textbooks</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39059&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>According to the paper, Every Child Should Have a Textbook, centralized financing mechanisms could allow for a US$3 reduction in the price of each textbook and save almost US$1 billion a year from the cost of learning materials in sub-Saharan Africa alone. Kenya, for example, could save $US64 million from its textbook bill, Malawi US$33 million.
The report argues that improved financial models could help triple the number of textbooks available for children worldwide, thereby improving educational achievements, particularly in poor countries hampered by the high cost of textbooks today. According to the study, providing textbooks to all students could increase literacy scores by 5-20%.</description>

 <title> Lebanon: Residency Rules Put Syrians at Risk</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39045&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Lebanese authorities are imposing regulations that effectively bar many Syrian refugees from renewing their residency permits, heightening risks of exploitation and abuse among people who fled persecution and war, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today.
The 35-page report, oe‘I Just Wanted to be Treated like a Person’: How Lebanon’s Residency Rules Facilitate Abuse of Syrian Refugees,” is based on interviews with more than 60 Syrian refugees, lawyers, and humanitarian workers assisting refugees in Lebanon. Human Rights Watch found that residency regulations adopted in January 2015 have resulted in most Syrians losing their legal status. Only two out of the 40 refugees interviewed said they had been able to renew their residencies. Lebanese authorities should immediately revise the renewal regulations, including by waiving renewal fees and ending requirements for many refugees to find a sponsor.</description>

 <title> Agreed climate deal offers a frayed life-line for the world’s poorest people</title>

 <description>More than 190 countries have for the first time committed to climate action and the summit has created momentum throughout the year, with countries and parts of the business community making announcements toward tackling climate change. But the ambitious speeches from world leaders opening the summit were not sustained to the end game.
oeGovernments across the world have now come together in the global fight against climate change but must play catch up. We will be holding them to account with the millions of people who marched in cities all around the world so that dangerous warming is averted and the world’s poorest and most vulnerable communities get the support that they need.”</description>

 <description>A straight-A student rejected from high school, a promising baseball player unable to pursue a successful career, a seriously ill woman prevented from seeing a doctor, a human rights activist virtually imprisoned in his own country.
The thing they all have in common is what they do not have: a small piece of paper with their identification data printed on it.
The multi-coloured card may be small, but it makes the difference between poverty and marginalization and a secure job, access to medical facilities, a school place and a chance in life. It is a card that has split a country into a thousand pieces. One that now threatens to turn tens of thousands of people into virtual ‘ghosts’, without a country to call home.</description>

 <description>The poorest half of the world’s population - 3.5 billion people - is responsible for just 10 percent of carbon emissions, despite being the most threatened by the catastrophic storms, droughts, and other severe weather shocks linked to climate change.  These are the findings of a new Oxfam report, released during the ongoing climate talks in Paris, which also shows the world’s richest 10 percent produce around half of all emissions.</description>

 <title> Immediate Push on Climate-Smart Development Can Keep More than 100 Million People Out of Poverty</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38813&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Climate change is already preventing people from escaping poverty, and without rapid, inclusive and climate-smart development, together with emissions-reductions efforts that protect the poor, there could be more than 100 million additional people in poverty by 2030, according to a new World Bank Group report released before the international climate conference in Paris.
The report, Shock Waves: Managing the Impacts of Climate Change on Poverty, finds that poor people are already at high risk from climate-related shocks, including crop failures from reduced rainfall, spikes in food prices after extreme weather events, and increased incidence of diseases after heat waves and floods. It says such shocks could wipe out hard-won gains, leading to irreversible losses, driving people back into poverty, particularly in Africa and South Asia.</description>

 <title> Religion can make the good better and the bad worse</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38806&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Everything that is healthy can get sick, including religions and churches. Particularly today that we are afflicted by the disease of fundamentalism, that contaminates important sectors of virtually all religions and churches, including the Roman Catholic Church. Sometimes there is a true religious war. One need only follow some religious programs, especially those on television of a neo-Pentecostal tendency, but also some conservative sectors of the Roman Catholic Church, in order to hear how they condemn people or groups of certain theological tendencies, or demonize the Afro-Brazilian religions.
The main expression of this war-like and exterminating fundamentalism is the Islamic State, ISIS, that turns violence and the murder of those who are different into expressions of their identity.
But there is also another religious vice, found in the mass media, especially on radio and television: the use of religion to recruit people, to preach the gospel of material prosperity, to extract money from the faithful to enrich their pastors and their self proclaimed bishops. We have to deal with commercial religions that obey the logic of the market, namely, competition and recruitment of the greatest possible number of people, with the greatest possible accumulation of cash.</description>

 <title> Central America’s Triangle of Despair</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38759&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>During the past five years, some 100,000 unaccompanied migrant children from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador have been apprehended at the southern border of the United States. They are a particularly tragic subset of the approximately three million migrants from Central America’s so-called Northern Triangle who have reached the US in the past two decades.
The roots of this exodus are a tangle of structural problems. Weak, fiscally challenged governments, endemic corruption, struggling economics, and high levels of crime have made these three small countries difficult places to live. And changing that will likely require assistance from the US. While the challenges of the Northern Triangle cannot be addressed through foreign assistance alone, they are unlikely to be overcome without it.

 <description>The World Bank has changed its poverty indicator and lifted 200 million people out of extreme poverty. Critics have said this change calls into question recent progress in poverty reduction. EurActiv France reports. 
Extreme poverty has been in decline since the 1990s, and may disappear altogether by 2030. This flagship objective of the newly-adopted UN Sustainable Development Goals seems to be on course for success, according to the World Bank.
New predictions published by the World Bank on 4 October show that the number of people living in extreme poverty is expected to fall below 10% of the global population this year, from 902 million in 2012 to 702 million in 2015.
Extreme poverty is expected to fall from 7.2% to 4.1% in East Asia, from 18.8% to 13.5% in Latin America and from 42.6% to 35.2% in sub-Saharan Africa over the same period.</description>

 <description>The number of people living in extreme poverty around the world is likely to fall to under 10 percent of the global population in 2015, according to World Bank projections released today, giving fresh evidence that a quarter-century-long sustained reduction in poverty is moving the world closer to the historic goal of ending poverty by 2030.
The Bank uses an updated international poverty line of US $1.90 a day, which incorporates new information on differences in the cost of living across countries (the PPP exchange rates). The new line preserves the real purchasing power of the previous line (of $1.25 a day in 2005 prices) in the world’s poorest countries. Using this new line (as well as new country-level data on living standards), the World Bank projects that global poverty will have fallen from 902 million people or 12.8 per cent of the global population in 2012 to 702 million people, or 9.6 per cent of the global population, this year.

 <title> The Best Ways to Fight Extreme Poverty
</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38505&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>COPENHAGEN " In 1950, people in South Korea and Pakistan earned roughly the same amount of money annually. Today, the two countries are scarcely comparable. South Korean’s per capita income has grown 23-fold since then, while Pakistan has experienced only a three-fold increase.

How we can help more of the world’s poorest countries emulate South Korea’s success is one of the most important questions facing the world today. Better economic outcomes mean empowering entire populations with better health, more education, longer life, and less vulnerability to challenges like natural disasters.</description>

 <title> Lower trade barriers, stronger global trading system can help end extreme poverty</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38504&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A greater and more sustained effort to deepen the integration of developing countries into the global trading system through lower trade costs and fewer barriers between countries is essential to eliminating extreme poverty, according to a joint World Bank Group and World Trade Organization report released today (30 June 2015). oeBy supporting growth and development around the world, trade has proved to be an essential tool in tackling poverty. This report is a blueprint to enhance this role so that trade can do even more to improve the lives of the poorest and most vulnerable,” said Director-General Roberto Azevêdo.</description>

 <title> New report shows that 400 million do not have access to essential health services</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38425&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A WHO and World Bank Group report launched today shows that 400 million people do not have access to essential health services and 6% of people in low- and middle-income countries are tipped into or pushed further into extreme poverty because of health spending. "This report is a wakeup call: It shows that we’re a long way from achieving universal health coverage. We must expand access to health and protect the poorest from health expenses that are causing them severe financial hardship," says Dr Tim Evans, Senior Director of Health, Nutrition and Population at the World Bank Group.</description>

 <title> World Hunger Falls To Under 800 Million, Eradication Is Next Goal</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38354&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The near-achievement of the MDG hunger targets shows us that we can indeed eliminate the scourge of hunger in our lifetime. We must be the Zero Hunger generation. That goal should be mainstreamed into all policy interventions and at the heart of the new sustainable development agenda to be established this year," said FAO Director General José Graziano da Silva. "If we truly wish to create a world free from poverty and hunger, then we must make it a priority to invest in the rural areas of developing countries where most of the world's poorest and hungriest people live," said IFAD President Kanayo F. Nwanze. </description>

 <title> As Yemen crisis deepens, UN food relief agency calls on warring factions to allow supply restock</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38256&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) announced today that it will, along with partners, reach some 105,000 displaced people in Yemen’s main southern city of Aden over the next few days, while warning that with millions in need amid the deepening crisis, its supplies are now running low. 
WFP in 2014 found that 10.6 million people, or 41 per cent of the population in Yemen, were food insecure. Of these, 5 million people were found to be severely food insecure and in need of food assistance. It is estimated today, following the escalation of violence, that more than 12 million Yemenis are food insecure. </description>

 <title> World Bank President Outlines Strategy to End Poverty, Welcomes New Development Partners</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38228&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim today announced a broad strategy to end extreme poverty by 2030, and he welcomed emerging players such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the New Development Bank, established by the BRICS countries, as potentially strong allies in the economic development of poor countries and emerging markets.
Speaking today at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) in Washington in advance of the World Bank/IMF Spring Meetings, Kim noted that to achieve the World Bank’s twin goals " ending extreme poverty by 2030 and boosting shared prosperity among the poorest 40 percent in low- and middle-income countries " oethere is more than enough work to go around.”</description>

 <title> Breaking the Cycle of Chronic Poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38113&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>One out of every five Latin Americans or around 130 million people have never known anything but poverty, subsisting on less than US$4-a-day throughout their lives. These are the region\'s chronically poor, who have remained so despite unprecedented inroads against poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean since the turn of the century. Their situation is becoming more precarious as the economic boom that significantly contributed to reduce poverty dwindles. Regional GDP growth has slowed, from about six percent in 2010 to an estimated 0.8 percent in 2014. This contraction will likely take away one of the biggest drivers behind the strong reduction in poverty: an improved job market.</description>

 <description>Poverty and homelessness continue as top-tier concerns with majorities in 15 of the 24 countries polled seeing these as a very serious problem (an average of over 80 percent see it at least as somewhat serious). These concerns are at the same high level as crime and violence, unemployment and the rising cost of food and energy " all of which are seen as more serious than oeeconomic problems and uncertainty” and nine other issues tested. Germany and Spain have made the most dramatic increases in perceived seriousness of poverty and homelessness according to the GlobeScan poll of 24,000 citizens.    </description>

The international agency, whose executive director Winnie Byanyima will co-chair the Davos event, warned that the explosion in inequality is holding back the fight against global poverty at a time when 1 in 9 people do not have enough to eat and more than a billion people still live on less than $1.25-a-day.</description>

 <title> Brussels on strike: Rich city, poor citizens</title>
 <link>http://euobserver.com/opinion/126904</link>
 <description>Brussels is the second richest region in Europe. It has been in the top three for decades now. But right now 34 percent of its population is living in poverty. The unemployment figure is around 20 percent, 30 percent for youth and even up to 50 percent in some areas. This is exacerbated by the fact that Brussels has the most imbalanced labour market in Europe. There are jobs for those with university degrees, but a great majority of Brussels natives do not hold such degrees. </description>

 <description>Worldwide, close to 1 billion people live in poverty on less than $1.25 per day and more than 800 million are undernourished. Many of them are on the front lines of climate change. Extreme weather and droughts can put their food and water supplies at risk, raise prices, and destroy homes and businesses that are often built at the edges of livable land. They have little resilience to the volatility or economic havoc climate change can bring.</description>

 <title> Poverty and Poor Health in Pakistan: Exploring the Effects of Privatizing Healthcare</title>

 <description>The link between poverty and health is well established worldwide, but the connection is both direct (lack of access to health services) and indirect (lack of awareness about health-related issues). Poverty helps produce ailments and ill-health pushes people towards poverty. It is a vicious cycle. Socioeconomic conditions create situations that can lead to ill-health. Health emergencies can cost individuals and families, dearly aggravating poverty.</description>

 <description>Human rights attorney Mario Joseph and Tourism Minister Stéphanie Villedrouin are both trying to improve Haiti, but they are following radically different paths. The one wants justice, the other wants tourism.
Attorney Joseph believes that he has found a way to help the victims of the cholera epidemic in Haiti. About 750,000 people have been infected with the disease and the death toll now stands at 8,500. Officials expect there to be about 45,000 new cases in 2014. The culprit is the international community.</description>

For this, we must overturn the system mounted through international arbitration tribunals that protect investors' rights (ICSID and WTO dispute panels) - that is, the rights of major transnational corporations, which are responsible for the majority of international trade and investment flows.</description>

These conflicts need to end so that people can return to their homes and rebuild their lives. Conflicts don’t just ignite overnight. The African Union’s Peace and Security Council has measures in place that warn of conflict. If we can measure them, we can prevent them too. </description>

 <title> World Cup Joy Muffled by Brazilian Social Issues</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36984&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Yesterday's kick-off of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil was partly overshadowed by demonstrations of parts of the host country's discontent population. The reasons for the unrest are comprehensible. To host the World Cup, Brazil had to spent hundreds of millions on stadiums and related infrastructure, while many social issues in the divided nation remain unsolved. Brazil's recent economic emergence has brought prosperity and wealth to parts of the population, while many have been left behind.

 <title> 'Deglobalisation' Is the Way to Reduce Inequality</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36959&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>If we care about reducing inequality, we must seek new solutions to the problem. One approach is oedeglobalisation”, a proposal developed by Walden Bello and Focus on the Global South in response to the Asian financial crisis of 1997.
 
For deglobalisation, there is no oeone size fits all” model like neoliberalism or centralized bureaucratic socialism. Instead, according to this scheme, diversity is expected and encouraged, as it is in nature.</description>

 <title> Is the World Bank getting more serious about gender inequality?</title>

 <description>Recently, the World Bank launched a major new report, Voice and Agency: Empowering women and girls for shared prosperity with much fanfare.

 <title> Senegal: Human rights of communities trampled in 'Gold Rush'</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36829&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Rights to land are being sold from beneath the feet of rural communities in mining areas as the government of Senegal grants concessions to mining companies without safeguarding human rights in a flagrant breach of their duty under international law, a new report by Amnesty International published today has found. The report, Mining and Human Rights in Senegal, reveals that communities are being relocated without due regard for the impact on their livelihoods and access to food and water to make way for international mining companies, eager to exploit the country’s rich reserves of gold and other minerals.</description>

 <description>Today the European Commission adopted a Communication to contribute to the EU position in international negotiations on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as the follow-up to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The SDGs are intended to reinforce the international community's commitment to eradicating poverty and supporting sustainable development, challenges that affect the lives of current and future generations. The Commission Communication describes key principles and proposes priority areas and potential targets for the years following 2015, as a step towards establishing a limited number of Sustainable Development Goals.</description>

 <title> Rewriting global tax rules could increase developing countries’ corporate tax revenues by over 100%</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36684&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The G20’s plan to tackle corporate tax dodging, devised by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), needs a radical shake up so that developing countries can capture their fair share of foreign business activity, according to a new report published today by Oxfam. The report, Business Among Friends, says that today’s international tax rules allow multinational companies to ‘disappear’ their profits including to other countries in order to pay low or no tax. Oxfam warns that many of the world’s poorest economies that are being worst hit are being left out of the OECD’s negotiations to tackle this scandal. </description>

 <title> Capitalism simply isn't working and here are the reasons why</title>
 <link>http://www.courrierinternational.com/article/2014/04/21/le-capitalisme-se-mord-la-queue</link>
 <description>Suddenly, there is a new economist making waves " and he is not on the right. At the conference of the Institute of New Economic Thinking in Toronto last week, Thomas Piketty's book Capital in the Twenty-First Century got at least one mention at every session I attended. You have to go back to the 1970s and Milton Friedman for a single economist to have had such an impact. Economist Thomas Piketty's message is bleak: the gap between rich and poor threatens to destroy us.</description>

 <title> Three years of Syria conflict: We need a turning point toward peace</title>

 <description>Nigel Timmins is Oxfam’s deputy humanitarian director. He heads the organization’s response to the Syria crisis. Here, he reflects on his personal experiences working with Syrians. The story of Sabeen, who fled Syria just 24 hours after giving birth to her baby, will stay with me forever. As she sat on the floor of her caravan in Zaatari camp, in Jordan, she quietly looked into the distance and told me how, when approaching her due date, she had been forced to leave her home in Syria. Sabeen’s neighbor’s house had just been razed to the ground by heavy shelling, and she and her husband feared their house might be next.</description>

 <title> The drought industry</title>
 <link>http://www.transparency.org/news/story/the_drought_industry</link>
 <description>Located in the North East of Brazil, Piauí is one of the country’s poorest states. It’s also one of the driest. With only a sliver of coastline, the majority of the region is landlocked and arid, and drought has reached emergency levels in 199 of the 224 districts. Federal money was allocated to improve the situation, but development has been patchy or non-existent. The reason, say local campaigners, is corruption. </description>

 <title> The 6th congress of the Landless Movement in Brasilia:
A struggle against the growing hegemony of agribusiness</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36574&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In fact, the situation is intolerable.  In 2010, 175 million hectares of land remained out of production due to speculation, while nearly four million campesino families were without land; the Constitution is not applied and the agrarian law has no impact.  2013 was the worst year: just one hundred allotments distributed and five thousand families resettled on land, while nearly 100,000 families wait for an assignation of land in camps of the Landless Movement (MST - acronym in Portuguese).</description>

 <title> Finishing Off Hunger</title>

 <description>As SOFI 2013 points out, progress toward eradicating hunger and undernourishment has slowed since 2000, when food prices began to rise, following almost a half-century of decline. Although rapid economic growth has boosted per capita incomes in much of the developed world, income gains are not spread evenly, leaving hundreds of millions of people to face higher food prices without sufficient increases in income.</description>

 <title> Inequality Is a Choice</title>
 <link>http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/10/13/inequality-is-a-choice/?_r=0</link>
 <description>It’s well known by now that income and wealth inequality in most rich countries, especially the United States, have soared in recent decades and, tragically, worsened even more since the Great Recession. But what about the rest of the world? Is the gap between countries narrowing, as rising economic powers like China and India have lifted hundreds of millions of people from poverty? And within poor and middle-income countries, is inequality getting worse or better? Are we moving toward a more fair world, or a more unjust one?</description>

 <title> Sugar Rush. Land rights and the supply chains of the biggest food and beverage companies</title>
 <link>http://www.oxfam.org/fr/cultivons/policy/fievre-sucre</link>
 <description>This paper sets out how one crop " sugar " has been driving large-scale land acquisitions and land conflicts at the expense of small-scale food producers and their families. At least 4 million hectares of land have been acquired for sugar production in 100 large-scale land deals since 2000, although given the lack of transparency around such deals, the area is likely to be much greater.</description>

 <title> Battle for literacy goes digital</title>
 <link>http://www.dw.de/battle-for-literacy-goes-digital/a-17067476</link>
 <description>Today there are roughly 774 million people who aren't able to read or write. One reason why we do have this backlog is because of relative neglect of this basic skill. It's also connected to the overall educational system of the country. Access to schooling is one important factor. Second is the importance of creating literate environments: How many literate people are there, how many books and newspapers are available?</description>

 <title> G20 must re-write tax rules and recoup Africa’s missing billions</title>
 <link>http://www.oxfam.org/en/pressroom/pressrelease/2013-09-05/g20-must-re-write-tax-rules-and-recoup-africa-missing-billions</link>
 <description>African nations are losing nearly 2 per cent of their gross domestic product (GDP) as a result of companies fiddling the books through ‘trade mispricing’, according to figures released today by Oxfam. This huge tax loss is equivalent to more than half the amount that governments spend on health in Sub Saharan Africa.
Oxfam calculated that if G20 countries lost the same proportion of their GDP to corporate tax dodging it would blow a massive $1.2 trillion hole in G20 budgets.</description>

 <title> Population growth challenges poor nations</title>
 <link>http://www.dw.de/population-growth-challenges-poor-nations/a-17010329</link>
 <description>Humans already consume more than half of the world's renewable resources. And pressure on natural resources will continue to increase as UN experts revised their forecast for population growth. This means that by the end of the century there could be 11 billion people living on the planet. The current global population is 7 billion.
The highest population growth occurs in poor countries. </description>

 <title> Ban Ki-moon: development aid decline a cause for concern</title>
 <link>http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2013/aug/16/ban-ki-moon-development-aid-decline</link>
 <description>There is an urgent need to reverse the fall in official development assistance (ODA), said Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary general, as he set out key elements for a development agenda beyond 2015.
In a progress report to the UN general assembly on the millennium development goals (MDGs), Ban expressed concern at the drop in ODA " which comes under MDG8, the global partnership " over the past two years.</description>

 <title> Quinoa, an Andean crop that can play a significant role in eradicating hunger</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=35651&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Quinoa can play a significant role in the eradication of hunger due to its nutritional qualities and agronomical versatility. In this context, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador and Peru are in a privileged position to promote quinoa production as well as its nutritional and cultural values.
Nonetheless, quinoa farmers face a challenge since there is a growing demand for quinoa in international markets and that represents a significant economic alternative for settlers in producer areas.</description>

 <title> Proven Anti-hunger Strategies</title>
 <link>http://www.policyinnovations.org/ideas/policy_library/data/01663</link>
 <description>EXCERPTED from the EIA Policy Brief "How We Count Hunger Matters" by Frances Moore Lappé, Jennifer Clapp, Molly Anderson, Robin Broad, Ellen Messer, Thomas Pogge, and Timothy Wise (free through September 2013)
Beyond economic growth and safety nets there exists a wide range of proven anti-hunger strategies, some of which the FAO has analyzed and promoted and which we encourage the agency to feature more in its annual SOFI [State of Food Insecurity] reports. Here we highlight four strategies"fundamental building blocks for stronger food security policies that we feel deserve greater attention in the current policy-making context.

 <title> Warmer World Will Keep Millions of People Trapped in Poverty, Says New Report</title>
 <link>http://www.banquemondiale.org/fr/news/press-release/2013/06/19/warmer-world-will-keep-millions-of-people-trapped-in-poverty-says-new-report</link>
 <description>oeThis new report outlines an alarming scenario for the days and years ahead " what we could face in our lifetime,” said World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim. oeThe scientists tell us that if the world warms by 2°C -- warming which may be reached in 20 to 30  years --  that will cause widespread food shortages, unprecedented heat-waves, and more intense cyclones. In the near-term, climate change, which is already unfolding, could batter the slums even more and greatly harm the lives and the hopes of individuals and families who have had little hand in raising the Earth's temperature.”</description>

 <title> International tourism</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=28651&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A billion international tourists in 2010! How excellent is that? Four considerations may lead us to wonder. The first relates to the scale of the phenomenon. With an annual growth rate of 6.5% since 1950, the tourism industry claims 850 million trips across international borders in 2006, as opposed to 200 million in 1975. According to the World Tourism Organization, the number of "pleasure migrants" is set to double in the next fifteen years, having already quadrupled in the past three decades. </description>

 <title> Hunger</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=19734&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Hunger, a biological part of reality that goes back just as far as humanity, is nowadays a political, a social and an economic scandal. The improvement of productivity prompted by the evolution of agricultural skills and exponential industrial development over 500 years has indeed come to the point that, according to FAO estimates, global industrial production today can cover the natural need for food of twice the actual world population. Yet, approximately one billion human beings suffer from huger, especially in Africa and Asia. Food shortage seems to be replacing hunger as such. </description>

 <title> Poverties</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=215&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The World Social Forum (meeting of the oepoor”) which takes place in Porto Alegre examines oeglobal wealth”, discusses oewealth creation and social reproduction”, as well as oeaccess to wealth and the sustainability of growth” on the basis of instrumental questions, which presume agreement on the ends being pursued and which tackle problems on a technical level. The paradox which means the poor are concerned with wealth whilst the rich are preoccupied by poverty, at the same time as the two agree to formulate the question in technical terms, gives rise to those ethical political reflections centred on the oepoverty-wealth” relation and its connection to the non-technical question of oesolidarity”.</description>

 <title> Displaced and refugee women</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=66&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Deportees, refugees, displaced population in huge and so far unheard of  numbers are perhaps the emblematic and the most poignant picture of our times. Nowadays it has become arduous if not impossible to distinguish between political and economic refugees, although international conventions still try to maintain the difference in order to fence off a part of the pressure of this destitute and growing crowd. War refugees, refugees from massacres and genocides as well as escapees from violently partitioned countries are the biggest and the most tragic segment of transborder migrations.
